Danielle Brooks - Hell No! lyrics

[Sofia] (spoken) You told Harpo to beat me? [Celie] (spoken) I'm sorry [Sofia] (spoken) I love Harpo, God knows I do But I k** him dead before I let him anybody beat me [Sofia] All my life I've had to fight I had to fight my daddy I had to fight my brothers My cousins, my uncles too But I never, never, never, never, never, never thought I'd have to fight in my own house I feel sorry for you to tell you the truth You remind me of my momma Under your husband's thumb No, you under your husband's foot! What he say goes Why you so scared, I never know But if a man raise his hand Hell no Hell no! Girl child ain't safe In a family of mens Sick and tired old woman Still live like a slave Oh, you better learn how to fight back While you still alive You show him girls can beat back that jive 'Cause when a man just don't give a damn Hell no Hell no! [Celie] (spoken) Well, what'chu gonna do then? [Sofia] (spoken) My sister's comin' to get me I think I need a vacation up and away from here [Celie] (spoken) But Harpo's your husband You gotta stay with him I know you love him [Sofia] When that man used to touch me He'd climb on top and start to rock me away Lord knows I still love him But he tried to make me mind And I just ain't that kind Hell no [Celie] (spoken) Sometime my husband get on me so hard It hurt me all over But he's my husband, so I just talk to my old maker This life will soon be over, heaven last always [Sofia] (spoken) Well, what you oughta do is bash Mister's head open And think on heaven later You cain't stay here, girl Sister [Celie] Hell no! [Sofia] Hell no! [Celie] Hell no! [Sofia] Hell no! [Celie] Hell no! [Sofia] Hell no! [Sisters] Hell no! Let's go! [Sister] (Sisters) Gonna be yo rock Gonna be yo tree Somethin' to hold onto in your time of need Girl, you too good for that man (Tell that man) Come on, take yo hand (Take my hand) [Sisters] Sister, you got to go [Sister] Don't be no fool Don't waste your time Any man that hurt you ain't worth the dime [Sofia] (Sisters) No he won't know Till you gone (She be gone) [Sisters] Sister, you got to go [Sofia] Girl, you too good for that man Let me tell you why Come on go Don't you wanna go away You got to leave, sister [Sisters] Sister you got to say [Sofia] You got to say You got to say You better say You oughta say [Sisters and Sofia] Hell no!
